 Philippines Turns to Blockchain, Crypto for River Rehab

The Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC), the agency tasked with cleaning up the 27-kilometer long Pasig River, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) last week with local blockchain company Cypher Odin as part of a plan to restore to health what is now a highly polluted river.

“There are so many opportunities and so many things we could do to help clean up the river. We can make Pasig like the River Thames where nightlife is vibrant or where people can enjoy water adventures like river dining and cruises. There are so many things that can be done, the possibilities are endless,” said Mariano Villafuerte IV, CEO of Cypher Odin.
